Dog School

I'm finishing my second round of dog school. I had to start out in Puppy Preschool because I proved not worthy for Beginning Obedience. Jan of Carlson Dog Training has infinite patience, though, and my dad even calls her a "dog whisperer". Wednesday night I did everything perfect for her: came when called, down, sit, stay and heel. But not for my Mom - I had a very springy butt for her.

My good friend, Smokey, had to have a bark collar put on. Wow, was his voice echoing down there. He's super nice but just needs to bark all the time. Well, not any more. This thing gives him a shot of citronella when he barks and that put a stop to that. Now, they just have to show it to him.
